The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1470

Mango was fierce and domineering, but Walter felt especially touched by her kindness. After his romantic feelings for her turned into a brotherly affection, he truly cherished the friendship between them.

"Okay, I promise you."

Meanwhile, Deborah was surprised by the gentle tone and warm smile on his face. She immediately stood on tiptoe and grabbed Walter's collar, "Which woman are you talking to? How dare you do this in front of me? Walter, you're bold, aren't you?"

Mango was stunned. Then, she burst into laughter.

"Deborah, it's me."

Mango's bright and clear voice rang out, and Deborah immediately feel embarrassed.

"Oh, it's Mango. Your brother was being sneaky when he answered the phone. I thought he was hooking up with some other women. Anyway, have fun chatting. I'll go shopping."

After that, Deborah loosened her grip on him and patted his shoulder. However, Walter noticed the disappointment in her eyes.

Deborah knew him very well. She knew exactly the kind of affection he had for Mango previously. Hence, Walter understood that she was having a hard time.

After all, she would get jealous too.

However, Deborah couldn't even show her jealousy because Mango was his cousin.

Walter suddenly felt distressed at this thought.

He finally understood the meaning behind Mango's words.

Mango told him that he would definitely meet the love of his life someday, and his affection for the woman would be more than what he imagined.

At this moment, he realised his feelings for Deborah. He loved and cared for her more than anyone else.

Mango had Nathaniel, while Deborah only had him. Furthermore, they had just lost their child.

At this thought, Walter hurriedly said, "I will call my subordinate, but I don't know what will happen. Mango, I'm sorry, I may not be able to help you this time. Deborah has been feeling down recently, and I want to spend more time on her."

Upon hearing this, Mango was stunned for a moment.

Wow! Her cousin finally paid attention to Deborah!

After all, this was part of life. They had to make choices and prioritise some relationships over others constantly.

She wasn't sad about losing Walter. On the contrary, she was glad that he could finally understand the meaning she was trying to convey all this time. Once they grew up, they would get married, and there would be people they loved and cherished. However, this did not mean that the affection between them had faded away. Instead, this told that they had become more mature.

Perhaps they would feel disappointed because they were mature, but it was more comforting. Everyone had their own family to protect. The only person who could accompany them until the end of their life was their loved ones.

Therefore, Mango sincerely wished him all the best and said, "I understand."

"Sorry Mango. Deborah has been through alot because of me. Now that she has lost our child, I really want to focus my attention on her and not be too distracted by other matters."

Walter felt sorry towards Mango as he said these words.

In the past, he would do everything without hesitation whenever Mango called him, just like how he had never regretted what he had done in the Underground City.

However, he wasn't alone now. He had Deborah and the entire Grey family by his side. Although he wanted to help Mango, he couldn't put his family's safety on the line. Hence, he would find a way to balance things out even if he wanted to help Mango.

Although it was difficult, he had to do this. After all, he was Deborah's husband and the son-in-law of the Grey family.

"It's okay. You don't have to apologise. I didn't intend for you to participate either. You can just give me the number, and I will contact the person. In this way, you and your family won't be involved."

Walter felt upset when he heard what Mango had said.

He had never thought that there would come a day when he would abandon Mango to protect another woman. Despite that, he felt extremely down for some reason.

"You can still find me if you need any help. After all, I am your cousin."

"All right."

Mango hung up the phone after saying that.

Then, Walter almost feared up when he heard the beeping sound coming from the other side of the phone.

Wasn't he being too selfish?

He suddenly felt a little distressed.

Then, he quickly stepped forward and hugged Deborah from behind tightly. He was so sad that he wanted to cry.

Meanwhile, Deborah was shocked by his actions as he was acting weirdly.

"What's wrong with you? Did something happen to Mango? Is her baby in danger? Where's Nathaniel? Let's go to the Ye family."

Deborah quickly grabbed Walter's hand and was about to run to the Ye family, but she was stopped by Walter.

"No, she's fine."

Walter said with choked sobs.

It was rare for Walter to be so emotional, so she could not help but ask concernedly, "What's wrong with you? Tell me quickly, I'm worried."

"It's fine. I'm just glad to have you. But it's a little unfair to you because you found a man like me."

Deborah started tearing up after hearing what Walter had said, and suddenly, all her grievances and sadness had disappeared.

She didn't ask for much. In fact, she already felt loved after hearing these heartwarming words.

However, she raised her head and forced back her

tears.
